Worst villains

"Dexter" will likely never top John Lithgow's Arthur Mitchell from Season 4, but they should, you know, be at least scary. We applaud the writers for attempting a serial-killing duo this time, but the Colin Hanks-Edward James Olmos religious Doomsday Killer combo never had the right amount of oomph and power to captivate. Hanks might be the least frightening bad guy ever. Plus, who DIDN'T see that "big twist" coming?
